Outlet device that can be mounted on a water outlet

Abstract

A device (1) for cleaning for example a single or multi-bladed wet razor head. The device includes a housing (2) which has a water through-flow opening (20) that can be mounted on an outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting. At least one mechanism (21) is arranged inside the housing (2) of the device (1) and is designed to generate at least one pulsating water jet and/or to increase the flow speed of the mains water exiting the outlet of the tap, and adjoins the water through-flow opening. The mains water is delivered to the mechanism (21) via several of the flow-cross sections of the channels (22a, 22b, 22c) defining the mains water exiting the outlet of the sanitary outlet fitting, this mechanism (21) being designed as a rotational valve which includes several blades (multi-bladed) which are arranged close to each other on a common axis (23) below at least one of the channels (22a, 22b, 22c), with blades guiding the mains water to the water outlet (24).

The device (1) as claimed in claim 2, wherein the blades (220a, 220b, 220c) in terms of the angle thereof are disposed so as to be mutually offset on the axle (23) in such a manner that, independently of a respective rotary position of the blades (220a, 220b, 220c), at least one said blade (220a, 220b, 220c) prevents a throughflow of the tap water from at least one said channel.

5. The device (1) as claimed in claim 1, further comprising at least one bearing (25) for rotatable mounting of the axle (23) in the housing (2).

6. The device (1) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the device is adapted for cleaning a single-blade or multi-blade wet razor blade head.

Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

(1) In the drawings:

(2) FIG. 1 shows the device according to the invention in a schematic sectional lateral view;

(3) FIG. 2 shows the device in the frontal view.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

(4) As can be seen from FIG. 1, the device according to the invention, which here is also referred to as the outlet device, comprises at least one mechanism 21 which is configured for generating a pulsating water jet and/or for increasing the flow rate of the tap water exiting the outlet of the water tap. This mechanism 21 is advantageously configured such that the prevailing water pressure when opening the water tap is directed through a channel plate 28 having a plurality of channels 22a, 22b, 22c (bores) in one row, said channels 22a, 22b, 22c opening onto the rotary valve. As can be seen from FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the device 1 furthermore comprises at least one water outlet 24.

(5) As can be seen from FIG. 1, the blades 220a, 220b, 220c are disposed so as to be mutually offset at a defined angle on the axle 23.

(6) The axle 23 conjointly with the blades 220a, 220b, 220c by means of the tap water exiting from the at least one respective channel 22a, 22b, 22c of the water tap is set in rotation by at least one blade 220a, 220b, 220c.

(7) The arrangement of the blades 220a, 220b, 220c is most particularly advantageously conceived in such a manner that the tap water of at least one channel 22a, 22b, 22c, depending on the rotary position of the blades 220a, 220b, 220c, is either retained by at least one blade 220a, 220b, 220c, or on at least one blade 220a, 220b, 200c flows to a water outlet 24.

(8) The blades 220a, 220b, 220c in terms of the angle thereof are disposed so as to be mutually offset on the axle 23 in such a manner that, independently of the respective rotary position of the blades 220a, 220b, 220c, at least one blade 220a, 220b, 220c prevents a throughflow of the tap water from at least one channel.

(9) Due to the tap water flowing in an alternating manner on the rotating blades 220a, 220b, 220c a pulsating water jet having a water pressure that is provided so as to depend on the design embodiment of the diameter of the channels 22a, 22b, 22c is created.

(10) As can be seen from FIG. 1, the device 1 has at least one bearing device 25 for a rotatable mounting of the axle 23 in the housing 2.

(11) It is furthermore advantageous for a splash protector 3 to be provided on the water outlet 24, said splash protector 3 being formed from ribs 30 that are vertically aligned and configured so as to be flexible and/or elastic as well as chamber-like. The splash protector 23 is preferably disposed in an annular groove 31 on the housing chamber 2b.

(12) The device according to the invention in terms of the embodiment thereof is not limited to the preferred embodiments set forth above. Rather, a multiplicity of variations of design embodiments which, even in the case of a fundamentally different embodiment, utilize the solution illustrated are conceivable.

(13) In summary, the following is therefore to be noted:

(14) The present invention relates to a device (1) for cleaning, for example, a single-blade or multi-blade wet razor blade head, having a housing (2) which comprises a water through-flow opening (20) that is attachable to an outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting, said water through-flow opening (20) being adjoined by at least one mechanism (21) which is disposed within the housing (2) of the device (1) and is configured for generating at least one pulsating water jet and/or for increasing the flow rate of the tap water exiting the outlet of the water tap. The device according to the invention is characterized in that the mechanism (21) is supplied tap water by way of a plurality of channels (22a, 22b, 22c) that delimit the flow cross section of the tap water exiting the water outlet of the sanitary outlet fitting, wherein the mechanism (21) is configured as a rotary valve which comprises a plurality of blades (multi-blade) which are disposed on a common axle (23) beside one another below in each case at least one channel (22a, 22b, 22c) and which direct the tap water to a water outlet (24).
